Displaying console group definitions

Use the DISPLAY CNGRP command to display the console group definitions in effect for the sysplex. The definitions, activated via a SET CNGRP command or the INIT statement in CONSOLxx, are obtained from the currently active CNGRPxx parmlib members. There are three options for this command:

Display all active console groups with their names.
Display all console names associated with input group names.
Display only console group names active in the sysplex.

D CNGRP
`D CNGRP[,{GROUP\|G}[=(name[,name]...)]][,L={a\|name\|name-a}]`

CNGRP

The system is to display information (message IEE679I) about the console groups currently defined to the system or sysplex. If you specify this keyword alone, the system displays all the group names and the console names associated with each group.

GROUP or G: The system is to display information on specific console groups. If GROUP is the last keyword in the command, then only the names of all active groups are displayed.
name[,name]: The system is to display all console names associated with each input group name. Valid group names are a maximum of 8 characters long.

L=a, name, or name-a

Specifies the display area (a), console name (name), or both (name-a) where the display is to appear.

If you omit this operand, the display is presented in the first available display area or the message area of the console through which you enter the command.
